Directing the Committee on Ethics to preserve and publicly release records relating to monetary settlements involving acts of sexual harassment.

This resolution directs the Committee on Ethics and the Office of Congressional Workplace Rights to publicly disclose, within 60 days, comprehensive information about taxpayer-funded settlements related to misconduct in the House of Representatives. It mandates the creation of a consolidated list identifying Members, Delegates, or Resident Commissioners involved in sexual harassment or abuse cases that resulted in taxpayer payments, detailing the specific amounts for each. The resolution also requires the release of aggregate total amounts of taxpayer funds paid for other settlements, including those involving Members not related to sexual misconduct, and those involving House employees, both with and without sexual misconduct. A matter is considered to involve sexual harassment, abuse, or misconduct if it was any component of the case, regardless of other claims. This initiative aims to enhance transparency and accountability regarding the use of public funds for misconduct settlements within the legislative branch.
